No, you are taking your extremely limited experience and giving the rest of the education world a fresh coat of bullshit.We're not arguing, I'm informing you and you are getting defensive for some reason.
The NCLB demanded all students be completely fluent within two years of ESL instruction and there were no "ESL" teachers in the state, so all core teachers were required to take ESL instruction classes after school with no pay for the hours required. If I recall correctly, English teachers had additional instruction hours comparable to a Master's degree.
Stay in your little corner of Boston with their limited number of ESL students and dedicated ESL teachers. The rest of the world does not match up to your fantasies.
